  1. New Monty 2.7 Tyre

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Hello all! >_<

    I've just set my new bike up, And i thought to myself "i need a new rear tyre, because my current tyre is bold".

    So i was thinking of the new Monty tyre, But with it being 2.7 will it fit in my frame or is it specifically meant for Monty's. I have a zoo now, With my maxis being 2.5, there was only a little amount of clearance at that.

    So what i am getting at, Does anyone know if the Monty tyres are Good or Bad and would they fit into my zoo?

    Hope you guys can help me on this one?

    All comments welcome. (Y)

    Cheers joe

  2. Full Front Wheel Builds

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Hello

    How much money are you looking to spend roughly, then i may be able to help you. Why not try tartybikes, They do a full front wheel build 20" wheel for £55 i think, So i'm presuming the price will be the same for 26".

    It's worth a try, thats if you are looking for an Echo wheel. But im not to sure about the disk mounts, You would have to ask which hub the wheel is built onto.

    Hopes i have helped you.

    Cheers joe :)

  3. Snail Cams

    Put something between the axle and the end of the dropout. I've used that method on a lot of bikes

    Another option is to try and tighten your hub bolts more and put a little more tension on your chain with the tensioners.

    Otherwise try the method that the guy above recommended.

    Hope is helps

  4. Re-threading Cranks

    Hi there

    Well you can just use the crank are again but the next time you want to get it off you will have to use a hammer rather than the tool its still easy, Thats what i do and it still comes off because i have not got a tool.

    what is your new frame that your putting them on.

    Cheers joe

  5. New Frames?

    Hi there

    If it's a longer wheelbase bike your looking for, Why not try a Gu or a Zoo Python, they are both around the same price. You can get both of those frames in short or long, But the 06 Zoo only long is avalible :S Don't know why

    Cheers hope this helps you decidee what to get. (Y)

    Hi there :turned:

    Your bike is looking quite nice and pimperish :P now good one, Im especially liking the rims, HOw are they i.e. do the grind well and are they strong or weak. Did you get the frame second hand or brand new off the shelf, because i know someone selling one of those frames :S .

    How does the bike ride. I remember when i had a ride on squinces Toxin, and it felt to short for me, cause there shorter that the t-lite. It's ok for you though because you are small aren't you :P .

    Anyways Nice bike overall pall.

    Will you be bringing out a video at all of you riding the toxin, You brought one out when you had your Zoo!.

    Cant wait to see it (Y) See if it makes you ride any better.

    Cheers joe :sleeping:

  7. Innertubes

    (Y) Hi there

    I think you tend to get the little pinch flattys with the cheaper innertubs more often. A good innertube i think is the kenda ones. they last a fer while longer if you ask me, thats what i habe run for around 5 months now.

    Cheers joe

  9. Onza Forks

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted · Edited by joe_eyre

    i would go for the echo lites i no there not onza but there lite, strong, and CHEAP

    hope i helped cheers danny ^_^

    Yeah i say the same. Personally i wouldn't recommend onza forks as i have and previous bad experiences :lol: . Like them snapping at the headset, those forks was onza lite guys, i'm not to sure on the other designs. But i do know that the onza fall guy forks are really heavy. Haha.

    Hope this helps you decide what to get. But if you really are wanting some onza forks i would go for onza lite guys i know they snapped on me but i did have them for a long while. :S

    Cheers joe :turned:

    Thanks for the welcome guys.

    They are DMR DV rims got them cheap at the bike show a couple of years back, wanted halo's but couldn't afford them though these have proved well nice and strong.

    Hi there

    they still look good though don't get me wrong. My friend had one of those bikes. Actually i think it was almost identical apart from a few little parts.The frames are really light if i am correct :S And those forks look mint.Whats the travel on them, Do you know :ermm: .

    Welcome again :P hehe

    Cheers joe

  13. Feedback On 221 Ti Stems

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted

    Hi there

    I will add to that. Monty stems are simply the best of all. They look nice, ride nice and are well made. The only problem i had with them was when i came to put my zoo! bars in them it scratched them when prizing the stem open :P But meh they all good now and running fine with a bit of black permanent marker to cover the scratches Hehehe..

    Cheers joe (Y)

  19. Stem And Bars? What Shall I Get? Any Reccomends?

    in Beginners Trials Chat

    Posted · Edited by joe_eyre

    HI guys, i want to buy a new stem and bar for my t-pro. At first i was going to get the zoo riser stem, and zoo riser bars. Then I thought, "what about the onza carbon bars?" and with that I would have got the onza t-master stem. My questions are:

    1) Will a onza t-master stem off tarty bikes work with riser bars?

    2) Are the carbon onza bars strong? (i am a very big boy, will it snap?) and are they light?

    3) What’s the difference between zoo riser bars and onza carbon bars except the price?

    4) What’s the difference between the zoo riser stem and the onza riser stem except the price?

    please post in your recommendations and answers.

    Thanks, Geraldo

    Hi there

    I would go for the zoo! stem and bars option as they are simply the best better than all the rest :turned: hehehehe. I got a little carried away then :blink:

    Cheers joe :sleeping:
